Mac Forum / Applications / Virtual PC / September 2008Virtual PC 7.0.3 on G5 crashing from start
Similar to a previous post, but I am running an iMac G5, recently upgraded to OSX 10.5, now refuses to start up Virtual PC 7. It simply creates an error report saying that it encountered an error and will restart after sending an error report to Microsoft. It has been running well, even after the upgrade, but today, when I need it - it does not let me get near it. It has been regularly updated automatically since installation a few years ago and I have obtained and re-installed the upgrade to 7.0.3, to no avail??? Any advice would be much appreciated First try the stand Mac OSX voodoo of running Disk Utility and Repairing Disk and Repair Disk Permissions. If that fails try moving the PLIST file to the desktop (while VPC is not running) and then start VPC to allow it to rebuild a new one.

I first tried plutil to check both plist files and both were reported as being OK. I then moved the plist files to the desktop and restarted Virtual PC AOK. Yesterday, I found it would start OK if I ran it from the repair utility in the Virtual PC package file set - but it would start otherwise. Many thanks - much appreciated Tony > First try the stand Mac OSX voodoo of running Disk Utility and Repairing > Disk and Repair Disk Permissions.
